‘sue any of the Studies in the Teachers’ Department, together

Manual, Levizac’s Grammar, ‘’elemachus, Charles Twelth, 
La Henriade, Boyer’s or Surenne’s Dictionary. The instruc- 
tion in this Department is thorough and practical, and the course 
sufficiently extensive to prepare students well for College, or 
to give them such a knowledge of the Latin and Greek as will 
be necessary for those preparing for a profession.

vanced students: the studies are Orthography and Lexicology,

FEMALE DEPARTMENT. 


In addition to the supervision and instruction of the Teachers 
me this Department, the young ladies receive instruction in} 
bai with gentlemen, under the tuition of the other Teacheis, 


and also have the opportunity of attending lectures, and all the’ 


public exercises of the Seminary. 


LITERARY SOCIETIES, &C. | 


A weekly Lyceum is sustained by the young gentlemen.|| 
|The meetings of the Society of Enquiry are held semi-monthly, 
ne the exercises of which the Teachers and pupils of both De- 
peaments participate. The young ladies have also a Social | 
Union for mutual improvement. 


| The afternoon of Wednesday in each week is devoted to De- 
clamation and Composition in all the Departments. 


LECTURES. 


| 


Lectures will be given on Natural Philosophy and Chemis- 
try, English Grammar and Rhetoric, Physical Geography and 
Geology, Political Economy and Civil Polity, History and 


Chronology, and the science and art of Teaching. Many of 
the subjects, mentioned in the course of studies, must for the 
present be taught by familiar Lectures, These, together with 
ithe reviews by questions, have been found of great utility. In 
connection with the Lectures on Teaching, a Teachers’ Ly-| 
ceum is held for the purpose of discussing the best methods of 
|teaching the various branches, governing and managing 
| schools. 

During the latter part of the Fall term, most of the regular 


recitations are suspended, and the time is occupied by a course 
of instruction similar to that pursued in Tracners’ InsTiTuTEs. 
‘Those who are not members of the Institution are invited to 
attend this course without charge for tuition. 

Beside the common branches, the course embraces Lectures 
on Natural Philosophy, Astronomy, Chemistry, Physiology, 
the Science of Government, and Political Economy. 


16 W. R. Teachers’ Seminary.- 


LIBRARY AND APPARATUS. 


The institution is furnished with a Library of a few hundred 
volumes for general reading. ‘The Library of the “ Tracuers’ 
ASSOCIATION”’ contains most of the. valuable works on educa- 
tion, published in this country. The Library of Texr Books, 
‘(which are loaned to students for a smal] sum per term,) con- 
tains from ten to forty copies of Morse’s Geography, Boyd’s 
Rhetoric, and each of the works on Mathematics adopted from 
** Davins’ Course.” 

‘¢ MircHeLL’s Ouriine Maps,” “Tur Normau Cnart,” 
* 'Town’s Caartor Ei. emMenrary Sounps,”? Lyman’s Hisror- 
ICAL Cuart,” and a limited, but well selected Apparatus, ob- 
jtained for use rather than show: add to the facilities for teaching 
jand illustrating the several branches. | 


NC ee ae — 


RELIGIOUS EXERCISES 


The moral and religious instruction of the Students is con- 
‘sidered of paramount importance. ‘The members of all the 
Departments assemble in the chapel, morning and evening, for 
\devotional exercises ; and students spending the Sabbath in town 
lare expected to attend public worship. 


LOCATION. 


The Seminary is located in the village of Kirtland, Lake Co. ,| 
two and a half miles from the great thoroughfare from Buflalo 
to Detroit, nine and a halt miles from Painesville, and twenty-| 
two “asi from Cleveland. ‘The situation is pleasant, and as| 
healthy as any on the Reserve. 


BOAR]. 


The price of board in good families varies from $1,00 to} 
$1, 25 per week; board with contingencies from $1,25 to 
$1,75. A large number of the students have boarded them- 
iselves, and reduced the expenses to 75 cents per week, or even 
iless. A sufficient number of rooms, conveniently situated for 
ithis purpose, can be rented at a reasonable rate, and in this re- 
spect, the facilities afforded by the place are, probably, unsur- 
passed.
